Both of these important events have their memorials. By partaking of the Lord's supper, the broken bread and the fruit of the vine, we show forth the Lord's death until He comes. The scenes of His sufferings and death are thus brought fresh to our minds. The resurrection of Christ is commemorated by our being buried with Him by baptism, and raised out of the watery grave, in likeness of His resurrection, to live in newness of life. EW 217.1 I was shown that the law of God would stand fast forever, and exist in the new earth to all eternity. At the creation, when the foundations of the earth were laid, the sons of God looked with admiration upon the work of the Creator, and all the heavenly host shouted for joy. It was then that the foundation of the Sabbath was laid. At the close of the six days of creation, God rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made; and He blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because that in it He had rested from all His work. The Sabbath…
"For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come."
The EGW passage directly references and explains the Lord's Supper as a memorial of Christ's death, mirroring the sentiment in 1 Corinthians 11:26.
"It was a marvel to me that Satan could succeed so well in making men believe that the words of God, “The soul that sinneth, it shall die,” mean that the soul that sinneth it shall not die, but live eternally in misery. Said the angel, “Life is life, whether it is in pain or happiness. Death is without pain, without joy, without hatred.” EW 218.2"
"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:"
The EGW passage directly quotes and refutes the serpent's lie in Genesis 3:4, making the connection undeniable.
Satan told his angels to make a special effort to spread the lie first repeated to Eve in Eden, “Ye shall not surely die.” And as the error was received by the people, and they were led to believe that man was immortal, Satan led them on to believe that the sinner would live in eternal misery. Then the way was prepared for Satan to work through his representatives and hold up God before the people as a revengeful tyrant—one who plunges all those into hell who do not please Him, and causes them ever to feel His wrath; and while they suffer unutterable anguish, and writhe in the eternal flames, He is represented as looking down upon them with satisfaction. Satan knew that if this error should be received, God would be hated by many, instead of being loved and adored; and that many would be led to believe that the threatenings of God's Word would not be literally fulfilled, for it would be against His character of benevolence and love to plunge into eternal torments the beings whom He had…
"And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:"
The EGW passage explicitly references and quotes the serpent's lie in Genesis 3:4, highlighting its role in the development of the doctrine of eternal torment.
"Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die."
EGW directly contrasts the lie of immortality with the biblical principle of the soul's mortality, as stated in Ezekiel 18:4. The verse supports the idea that the soul that sins will die, which is the opposite of the lie that 'ye shall not surely die.'
